Temperature Control: A gimmick or a
necessity?
E-Cigarette
Today, in this article we are going to talk about the new function in Vaping devices
that has received a lot of popularity in 2015, Temperature Control. We will look at
its benefits, drawbacks and aim to see whether it is really a must have function in
the Vaping Devices to come.
What is Temperature Control?
After going through the ‘Temperature control’ literature we find that the main benefit its supports
claim that it offers is the element of Safety. Let us dwell further in this area. For that we need to
know more about the chemical known as “Formaldehyde”. When the PG (propylene glycol) and VG
(vegetable glycerin) in the E liquids are heated to a high enough temperature, the chemical
formaldehyde molecules are released. And according to a research published by Portland State
University regarding e-cigarettes, the chemical formaldehyde is produced while vaping which is
harmful to human beings as well as animals.
Another thing that has probably happened with almost all the vaping enthusiasts out there is the dry
hit you get which is horrible experience. This happens when you are vaping for a long time and the
wick starts getting drier and drier as time passes. As the high temperature from the coils gets to a
high enough point, it starts burning the wick and that is when you get that horrible dry hit.
Now there is a small complication over here, the temperature control function needs a nickel wire to
work. The reason is that as nickel is heated by an increase in voltage, its resistance increases at a
rate which is directly proportional to the heat increase. The Temperature controlled mod modifies the
voltage as the resistance in the nickel coil changes aiming to keep the temperature set at the
desired value.
The benefits!
Nevertheless the ‘Temperature Control’ feature aims to fix two of the above
mentioned issues. They control the temperature as mentioned in the last
paragraph so that it remains in your desired limit making sure the cotton does not
burn keeping you safe not only from the dry hit and its terrible experience but it
also decreases the chance of the chemical Formaldehyde being produced making
vaping a lot safer than before
